ALUN Rossiter has warned Robins' line-up not to get complacent tonight - despite Peterborough's wretched Abbey Stadium record.
The Panthers arrive near the bottom of speedway's Elite League and having never tasted success at Blunsdon, but they ran much-fancied Eastbourne close on the south coast last weekend.
Swindon were beaten in their last home outing - against Poole two weeks ago - but returned to the summit with victory at Wolverhampton on Monday.
And while insisting they should extend their top-of-the-table advantage this evening (7.30pm), Rossiter is on his guard for another home mugging.
"Another home defeat is the last thing we want,'' said the Robins chief, pictured left.
"Peterborough took Eastbourne close so they will be fired up.
"But I'm confident we've got enough.
"We had a great away win on Monday and it's important to capitalise on that.'' He added: "We were really frustrated against Poole - we don't like losing at home.
"But I still think there is more to come from our team. Monday's win could have been a lot more comfortable.'' Meanwhile, the Auto-Cycle Union (ACU) arbitration in the dispute between Robins and Swindon over the elligibility of guest Joel Parsons during the Robins' away victory in April will take place on Monday, June 23.
The Panthers will now travel to Robins full of confidence tonight hoping to record a second consecutive away win.
